One book. A whole world of extras.

Bring your workbooks, video lessons, audio links and useful tools together on one reader page. Give every book its own bonus collection, under the pen name your readers know. Planned email follow-ups will help you stay in touch with readers who opt in and invite honest Amazon reviews.

Resources powered by AuthorScout · Reader privacy

Your words, in place. In the admin studio, click page headings and text to edit them directly. Adjust colors, reorder sections and preview before publishing.

Examples are not downloadable products.
From your manuscript to their next step

A simple path from book to bonus.

No separate website for every pen name. No reader lists scattered across spreadsheets. Just one organized place for the resources your readers came for.

  1. 01

    Create with your AI

    Use Book Creator in ChatGPT, Claude or a compatible MCP client to draft a bonus, or bring resources you already have. You can build your page directly in the dashboard without using AI.

    AI-assisted or entirely your own.
  2. 02

    Build a complete collection

    Choose a designed template, upload your cover and add multiple bonuses to the same book: workbooks, reference PDFs, video courses, audio links or tools. Edit the layout and preview it before publishing.

    One book can offer many useful extras.
  3. 03

    Share it inside the book

    Add your bonus-page link or a QR code to your book. One email signup gives the reader access to that book’s published collection. Marketing remains a separate, optional choice.

    No separate signup for every PDF.
  4. 04

    Understand your readers

    See signups and unique downloads by book. Keep reader lists organized and manage your resources in the same workspace.

    Real activity. No invented review counts.
Many pen names. One workspace.

Separate identities.
A clearer overview.

Your study guides and craft books may have different authors and audiences. Give each pen name its own page, then manage the books, bonus files and reader records together.

  • Dedicated public address for each pen name
  • PDF, ZIP and image uploads up to 25 MB
  • Signups and unique download counts by book
  • Reader consent, unsubscribe and deletion controls

Built with reader trust in mind.

The bonus should be useful on its own. Readers do not have to subscribe to marketing or leave a review to receive it.

Available now

Design a page around your resources.

Ten editable templates, movable sections, cover uploads, private file downloads, video and web links, reader lists and delivery safeguards. External video views and tool usage are not measured.

Not enabled yet

Email delivery and the next conversation.

Real-reader email sending is disabled while AWS approval and sender setup are completed. Automated follow-ups, a reply inbox, page-visit analytics and review-link tracking are planned.

A review-link click is not a published Amazon review. We will never present one as the other.

Before you publish

A few useful answers.

Does the AI create the bonus for me?

Your AI can help draft the bonus using AuthorScout Book Creator in a compatible client. You review the content, upload the finished file and publish the reader page. The illustration above is an example, not an unattended publishing promise.

Does every pen name get a separate website?

Each pen name gets a separate public page, such as bonus.authorscout.com/j-north, with its own books and reader lists. The current implementation uses page addresses, not a separate custom subdomain for each author.

Can readers get a bonus without marketing emails?

Yes. They provide an email for the requested bonus. Marketing permission is a separate, unchecked option, and bonus access is never conditional on leaving a review.

Will AuthorScout ask my readers for Amazon reviews?

That is part of the planned follow-up workflow, not an enabled sending feature today. After approval and activation, book-specific emails will invite opted-in readers to leave an honest review. We will not offer bonuses in exchange for reviews, ask only for positive feedback, or claim that an email or link click proves a review was published.

Can one book have several different bonuses?

Yes. Keep multiple PDFs, video/course links, audio links and external tools in the same book collection. Add up to 30 additional resources alongside your original bonus. Each managed PDF, ZIP or image can be up to 25 MB. Direct audio/video hosting is not available yet; use an externally hosted link. One signup opens the published collection.

What can I measure today?

You can see reader signups and unique bonus downloaders by book, not separate per-file counts. This does not prove that someone finished reading a file, watched an external video, listened to audio or published a review.

Can I build a page without using an AI tool?

Yes. Choose one of ten templates in Bonus studio, edit your text and appearance, move sections, upload a cover and add your resource. Save a private design draft, check the preview, then publish. Reader consent and privacy controls stay in place. Book and resource edits are saved separately and update published resources immediately.

How do I start building my author website?

Open Author Sites in your dashboard to create a pen-name website and add your books and bonuses. See the pricing page for the included sites, storage and plan allowances.
